Life of Queen Cartimandu

MR.

HUDDERSFIELD.

R. W. J. VARLEY, Liverpool University archaeologist, started work recently 1,000ft. up on the ridge of Castle Hill, Huddersfield, where he hopes to discover the private life of Queen Cartimandu of the Brigantes.

Rain beat down on the earthworks as Mr. Varley, with his wife and Miss M.

U. Owen, wearing waterproof trousers, plotted the sites for digging.

"The Brigantes," said Mr. Varley, "were a hardy race.”

Fathers' Day With The Evacuees

RE

HIGH WYCOMBE. ‣ECENTLY a reunion day was held among London's evacuated families. You might almost call it Fathers' Day, for the great majority of the thousands who left London to visit the towns and villages around were men whose wives and families had left home a week ago.

The trains leaving London's main stations were crowded with fathers, uncles, aunts, big brothers and sisters and, sometimes, mothers who had stayed at home when their children went away.

So his son, Mr. David Leigh, is rearing six buzzards birds which look like eagles and are said to be great rabbit killers.

Two of the buzzards, aged about ten weeks, were released recently from a large aviary constructed in the centre of the estate.

The other birds will be released at intervals and, if all goes well, they should mate and multiply.
